Zeus Scanner Pricing

[DeskJockey1991]

Is $1,500 a fair price for a new-ish (from the inventory of a retiring SO dealer) Zeus scanner (not the plus edition)? TIA

Updated software? Id say that would be a deal.

June 2023 so would need an update

I think that needs 2 updates to be current and usable on secure gateway vehicles(plus the $50 yearly fee for mopars).

Those originally listed for something like $22,000 so yeah I’d say $1,500 is pretty good. (I know that nobody pays MSRP for large Snap-on purchases, but still…)

It will cost you 1200-ish to update if you want secure gateway access, current software, and Intelligent Diagnostics to work. $1500 is a great deal IMO.

Be aware there is a new VCI for either Ethernet or DoiP vehicles like Volvo for communications, enhanced data does not work with my Windows 7 Generation 1 Zeus. I basically just see fuel trim issues so I use generic data and diagnose the failed PCV/oil trap. So if you don't have that newer VCI you'll forgo that enhanced data. I would not hesitate to buy even a non-updated windows 7 zeus for $1500. The scope and guided component test are basically worth that.

If it's a windows 10 unit it's inherently worth more in my experence as it's still supported by Microsoft and should have a longer life as a newer tool.

Very good deal.

I am getting a fully updated Triton D-10 for $1,500 instead, which has a clear title and is in really good condition.

Good price.
